This Society had its origin in the desire of many gentlemen, 
principally living in Brooklyn, not only to bring together, at a 
convenient centre, books, documents, memorials of all kinds, 
relating to the history of Long Island, and of the State of New 
York, but also to collect a library rich in all departments of 
historical literature : a library of reference, in wliicli the student 
may find what he needs for the illustration of any period in 
history, of any epoch of progress, in politics, art, invention, letters, 
and human thought. 

Even the partial accomplishment of so large a plan must, of 
course, require large funds, and occupy many years. With small 
means, a limited and fluctuating membership, and no building of 
its own, the Society has as yet been able only to make a com- 
mencement of what it hopes will ultimately become a vast and 
rich library, attractive to students, honorable to the city, and 
furnishing constant aids and incentives to liberal studies. The 
necessary foundations of such a library have, however, been 
secured ; and they are broad enough to show how ample and 
helpful the library will be, to all persons of scholarly tastes, 
whenever the original design concerning it shall be more fully 
realized. 

The Society was incorporated in 1863 ; and it numbers, at 
present, 596 Annual Members, and 42-i Life Members. 

The library already contains over twenty-six thousand volumes, 
with nearly as many selected pamphlets, many of the latter being- 
rare and valuable. It is very rich in works relating to American 
local history, and to family genealogy ; and contains nearly all 
the important works which have been published upon general 
American history. It is also strong in English and French 
history and biography, and has a fine collection of costly and 



6 

richly illustrated volumes, relating to fine art, antiquities, and 
natural history. The following works may be mentioned, as 
representing the classes of books which this Society already pos- 
sesses, and which it seeks to gather in larger numbers, for its 
members :

These works are mentioned only as representative of classes of 
books included in the library, of which private collections will 
usually contain but single specimens. 

A department of works relating to Egypt, the Holy Land, and 
Greece, has been founded by two ladies ; and another lady has 
founded a department of American biography. There is also a 
Medical department, which was established by members of the 
Kings County Medical Society, to which was added, in 18G9, the 
entire library of an eminent Brooklyn physician, presented by his 
widow. 

In addition, the library contains a good collection of general 
literature, and is well furnished with encyclopaedias, dictionaries, 
and similar works of reference. It is also supplied regularly with 
the most important American and English periodicals, and the 
New York and Brooklyn daily and weekly papers. Of many of 



these periodicals and newspapers the library contains complete, or 
nea ly complete, files. 

A small library-fund, of a little more than fifty thousand dol- 
lars, has been secured, the income of which is annually applied 
to the maintenance and the increase of these collections. 

Many unpublished manuscripts are in possession of the Society, 
among them a large portion of the papers of Henry Laurens, 
President of the Continental Congress, the correspondence of his 
son, Col. John Laurens, with many letters of Eichard Henry Lee, 
Gen. Gates, and other eminent men of the period ; also a series of 
one hundred and twenty-three original letters of Washington, 
formerly belonging to Edward Everett, which have never been 
printed, and which abound in curious details, illustrating the 
times and the character of the illustrions writer; besides many 
papers relating to Long Island, New York City and vicinity, from 
the period of the Dutch government to the present time. 

It has always been a plan of the Society lo publish valuable 
original manuscripts, as they come into its hands, and as it becomes 
possessed of the necessary funds. Thus far, however, it has been 
able to publish only two volumes, with the following titles : 

Vol. I. — Journal of a Voyage to New York, and a Tour in Several of the 
American Colonies in 1679-80. By Jasper Bankers and Peter 
Sluyter. Translated from a Dutch Manuscript in the collection of 
the Society, and edited by Hon. Henry C. Murphy. (Octavo, pp. 
xlvii. 440. With twelve lithographic illustrations of Old New York. 
Brooklyn, 1867.) 

Vol. II. — The Battle of Long Island, T^itli Connected Preceding Events, and the 
Subsequent American Retreat. Narrative by Thomas W. Field, 
with Authentic Documents. (Octavo, pp. ix. 550. With two Maps 
and five engravings. Brooklyn, 1869.) 

These volumes haA^e been approved by historical students, both 
in this country and abroad, as of great intrinsic interest and 
value. Others will follow, whenever the funds needed for the 
expensive work of publishing are again within the control of the 
Society. 

The Society possesses a considerable number of paintings, 
mostly portraits of historical persona,ges ; a valuable collection of 
Indian curiosities, many interesting relics and memorials, and a 
collection of coins. The department of Natural History contains 



9 

classified specimens representing tlie Natural History of Long 
Island ; and the committee in charge is using every means in its 
power to make this complete as a local collection. There are 
also many specimens from other parts of this country, and from 
abroad, of which only a few are on exhibition at present. The 
Natural History Committee holds monthly meetings, to which all 
members who are interested are invited, when papers on appro- 
priate subjects are read. 

The general meetings of the Society are commonly held on the 
second and fourth Tuesday evenings of the month, from Novem- 
ber to May, These meetings are, for the present, held in the 
Packer Institute. Those who have addressed these meetings 
during the past season, are as follows : 
Prof. Darwin Gr. Eaton, on The Great Pyramid. 
Prof. Julius H. Seelye, on India. 
Prof. Lewis R. Packard, on The Drama in Persia, Greece and 

England. 
Rev. Charles W. Baird, on The Huguenots of New York. 
Hon. George T. Davis, on the Uncertainty of the Law. 
Prof. W. Henry Green, on the Recent Researches on the Site of 

Nineveh. 
Prof. William E. Griffis, on his Observations in Japan during 

1870-4. 
Prof. John F. Weir, on the Gates of the Baptistry at Florence, 

with a Sketch of the Renaissance. 
Daniel M. Tredwell, on the Evidences of the Pre-Historic Migra- 
tions from America to Polynesia and Eastern Asia. 
W. J. Forsyth, on Strange Customs of the East, 
Hon. Henry R. Pierson, on Railroads. 
Dr. Isaac I. Hayes, on the Millennial Celebration in Iceland. 

The original plan of the Society can never be accomplished 
until it has a building of its own, accessible, commodious, in 
which to safely house its Library and various collections, and in 
which also to hold its meetings. The most desirable lots in the 
city for such a building, (on the corner of Pierrepont and Clinton 
Streets,) were secured for the Society several years since, and are 
still held by it. But various causes have thus far conspired to 



10 

delay tlie raising of the amount necessary for tlie erection of such 
a substantial and handsome structure as the Society needs, and 
should have. Whenever that is secured, the rapid and permanent 
progress of the Society, toward the complete accomplishment of 
the generous and wise plan contemplated at its beginning, will, 
humanly speaking, be assured. 

Meantime the Society occupies a suite of eight convenient and 
attractive rooms in the " Hamilton Building," on the corner of 
Court and Joralemon Streets, the principal entrance being on 
Joralemon Street. These rooms are open to members, and their 
families, from 8:30 A. M. to 9:30 P. M., excepting during the 
Summer, when they are closed at 6 P. M. 

A separate room is provided for the use of Ladies, many of 
whom are in the habit of availing themselves of the aids to cul- 
ture, and the mental refreshment, which the Librarj^ offers ; and a 
young lady is in daily attendance at the rooms, as Assistant 
Librarian. 

Members of the Society are entitled to the constant use of the 
Library and Beading Rooms, and have free admission to all the 
meetings of the Society. During the past year nearly one hun- 
dred new members were added to the list. But these additions 
were so far counterbalanced by the removal of previous members 
from the city, their death, or their necessary resignation of mem- 
bership for private reasons, that the total number of members is 
now scarcely larger than it was a year ago. It is earnestly to be 
desired that those who know and value the Institution would 
make known to others its character and work, and its generous 
aims, and would enlist them in its faithful and active member- 
ship. 

Terms of Membership : 

Initiation fee, Five Dollars. 

Annual dues, Five Dollars. 

Life membership (including fee and annual dues), Fifty Dollars. 

Applications for membership can be made through any member 
of the Society, or to the Librarian, at the rooms, .
